Al-Maliki Told The Answer

Level 24 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

With a pot size already over 1,000,000, Adnan Al-Maliki was all-in for around 1,200,000 and Kiavash Arbabi was thinking about making the call.

"Will you show if I fold", Arbabi asked, in a reversal of the situation that happened not too long ago when Al-Maliki asked Arbabi to show and he said no.

Al-Maliki said "you didn't show me, but if you tell me what you had in that other hand, I'll show".

Arbabi agreed to tell Al-Maliki and folded his hand.

Al-Maliki showed him top-pair {k-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} on the board of {4-Clubs}{j-Spades}{7-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{5-Spades}.

"Now what did you have in that other hand", said Al-Maliki. "Busted flush draw" Arbabi replied, confirming Al-Maliki's belief that he was previously bluffed off the pot. Al-Maliki scooped in the large pot but it would've been even larger if Arbabi called.
